Head of Business Development at KeenEthics

Chatbot Solution Review from Daria Hlavcheva
KeenEthics onboarded Lionwood Software to develop an AI-powered chatbot that could analyze photos of vehicle damage and provide an estimated repair cost for insurance company. The project focused on applying AI to a traditionally manual part of the insurance claims process. The solution needed to interpret car damage from uploaded images, identify relevant damage, and translate the analysis into a cost estimate that could support faster and more consistent claims assessment. Lionwood Software took ownership of the AI development and worked closely with the KeenEthics team to align the solution with the product requirements and insurance use case. Their team demonstrated a strong understanding of both the technical challenges of image-based damage assessment and the business logic behind insurance claims. They were proactive in discussing requirements, clarifying edge cases, and addressing dependencies throughout the development process. The resulting solution helped automate an important part of the vehicle damage assessment workflow, reducing the need for purely manual evaluation and creating a foundation for faster claims processing. Lionwood Software proved to be a reliable technology partner with the expertise to work on AI-driven products where technical implementation needs to be closely aligned with real-world business requirements.

Gene McCreesh
Review from Google

Gene McCreesh's Review Sourced from Google
FIVE STARS!!! 10 out of 10.
After more than 30 years in business, I’ve learned the hard way that not all website and SEO companies deliver on their promises. Over the years, I’ve hired multiple companies that talked a big game but never produced real results.
Nowadays, having a strong online presence is absolutely critical in the service industry, and Jeremy at Digital Minds has finally gotten us moving in the right direction. From day one, he’s been honest, knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. He always answers the phone, knows SEO and website marketing inside and out, and consistently over-delivers for a very fair price.
What I appreciate most is that Jeremy isn’t trying to drain your budget with unnecessary extras. He puts together a realistic game plan and rolls things out the right way so you get the maximum return on your investment.
I can honestly say I’ve finally found my SEO, website, and marketing team. Highly recommend Jeremy and his team at Digital Minds to any business owner looking for real results. 100%. I'm super excited to grow this area of my business with the support of people that know what they're doing.
Thank you,
Gene McCreesh

If you’re looking for someone reliable, professional, and truly customer-focused, Jeremy is the one. Highly recommend!

5 Frequently Asked Questions About Shopify Development Companies
What services do Shopify development agencies offer?
They provide end-to-end solutions that cover everything from initial strategy to long-term growth. Businesses should look for Shopify experts who combine Shopify development, design, integration, and digital marketing to maximize ROI.
Core Shopify development services include:
Shopify Store development and web development: Creating Shopify and Shopify Plus sites from scratch, tailored to brand and business models. Shopify website development includes user experience (UX), navigation and structure, and scalable eCommerce architecture for growth.
Shopify theme development and customization: Designing advanced Shopify themes using Liquid, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and managing performance optimization and mobile responsiveness.
Shopify app development and software development: Creating custom Shopify apps for unique business needs, private and public apps, and developing backend software for automation and integrations.
Shopify integration services: Managing third-party integrations (ERP, CRM, PIM, payment gateways), API-based Shopify integration with logistics, accounting, and marketing tools, and automating business processes.
Shopify migration: Transferring existing stores from platforms like WooCommerce, Magento, or custom systems, handling data transfer (products, customers, orders), and managing SEO-safe URL mapping and redirects.
Performance and optimization (CRO): Enhancing site speed, mobile optimization, and user experience (UX) to increase conversion rates.
Ongoing support and maintenance: Providing regular updates, security monitoring, and technical support
When does a business need Shopify Plus and a Shopify Plus Partner?
A business typically needs Shopify Plus and the support of a Shopify Plus partner when its eCommerce operations become too complex, high-volume, or globally distributed for standard Shopify plans. At this stage, businesses require a more advanced Shopify solution to support automation, multi-store management, and international commerce.
At that point, success depends on:
Advanced Shopify development
Strong integrations
Optimized Shopify design and UX
Continuous growth through digital marketing and Shopify SEO
Top Shopify development companies help turn Shopify Plus from a platform upgrade into a long-term competitive advantage. Shopify Plus is designed for high-growth brands that usually generate $1M+ in annual revenue or experience rapid monthly growth.
Shopify reported that its merchants processed over $235 billion in gross merchandise volume (GMV) in 2023, showing how quickly businesses on the platform can scale.
How much does it cost to hire a Shopify development company?
The cost of hiring a Shopify development agency can vary significantly based on your store’s complexity, required features, and long-term goals.
Shopify developers charge between $30 and $200+ per hour or $5,000 to over $30,000 for full website development, according to DesignRush data.
Location is another factor that influences pricing. Agencies in the United States and across North America typically charge between $50 and $150+ per hour, while Eastern European or Asian Shopify development agencies may offer more competitive rates of $15 to $80 per hour.
Platform and ongoing costs to consider:
Shopify plans range from $39 per month to $2,300+ per month.
Payment processing fees typically range from 1% to 3% per transaction.
Ongoing maintenance and support can cost between $90 and $2,400+ per month.
Do I need custom Shopify theme customization or an existing theme with minor edits?
Choosing between the two depends on your business stage, budget, and the level of differentiation your Shopify store needs to compete effectively.
Shopify theme customization vs. existing theme
Existing theme with edits
Custom theme development
Best for startups or simple store setups
Best for scaling businesses and advanced development
Lower cost: $0-$5,000
Higher investment: $10,000-$30,000+
Fast launch: days to a few weeks
Longer timeline: 4-12+ weeks
Uses 200+ pre-built Shopify themes
Fully custom Shopify design and theme development
Limited flexibility; relies on apps
Full control; ability to reduce need for apps and improve UX
Good baseline performance
Optimized performance where speed improvements can increase conversions by 8-10%
Essentially, you should choose an existing Shopify theme with minor edits if your priorities are speed, cost-efficiency, and simplicity. Go for a custom Shopify theme development if your priorities are scalability, performance, and differentiation.
What should a Shopify migration company include to protect SEO, data, and sales?
A reliable agency should protect your rankings, customer data, and revenue throughout the process.
At a minimum, a professional Shopify migration service should include:
SEO preservation: Full URL mapping, 301 redirects, and metadata transfer to prevent ranking loss
Data migration: Accurate transfer of products, customers, and order history with validation checks
Shopify integration: Reconnection of apps, payment systems, ERP, and CRM tools
Testing and QA: Full testing of checkout, payments, and user flows before launch
Performance optimization: Improved speed and mobile UX as part of Shopify development
Post-migration monitoring: Tracking traffic, rankings, and fixing issues after launch
These elements are critical because around 33% of users discover brands through search, according to recent reports. Therefore, even small SEO losses can directly impact sales.
